Although it seems unlikely that the wiki itself will become lost media anytime soon, most of the found media is hosted on third-party file lockers, such as [[Mega]] and Mediafire. This makes automated preservation of the found media extremely difficult, as those type of sites tend to block archiving tools.

Lost Media Wiki is a wiki and a forum detailing a history of lost media, such as lost movies, television shows, video games, etc.

Vital signs

Due to issues with Wikia, the owner of the wiki migrated the site over to a self-hosted wiki at lostmediawiki.com.[1] As of 2022, the forums are hosted by the ProBoards service.[2]

Although it seems unlikely that the wiki itself will become lost media anytime soon, most of the found media is hosted on third-party file lockers, such as Mega and Mediafire. This makes automated preservation of the found media extremely difficult, as those type of sites tend to block archiving tools.
